Hi there!

2
00:00:08,148 --> 00:00:12,350
In this video we’re going to learn to type
in the algebraic formulae in InDesign, so

3
00:00:12,350 --> 00:00:14,240
let’s get started.

4
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:20,170
I already have a few formulae typed in here,
but the squares and cubes, need to be superscripted,

5
00:00:20,170 --> 00:00:24,710
so we’re going to do that using styles,
and since you’ve already done styles, you

6
00:00:24,710 --> 00:00:27,310
should not face difficulty following me.

7
00:00:27,310 --> 00:00:32,150
Let’s ensure that nothing is selected, and
go to character styles, and click the small

8
00:00:32,150 --> 00:00:36,280
plus button at the bottom of the panel to
create a new style.

9
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:41,060
Double-click the new style, and rename it
‘superscript’, and then move on to ‘basic

10
00:00:41,060 --> 00:00:42,920
character formats.’

11
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,829
In the position dropdown, click either the
‘superscript’ option, or the ‘opentype

12
00:00:46,829 --> 00:00:50,899
superscript’ option, and hit okay.

13
00:00:50,899 --> 00:00:55,239
Now switch to ‘paragraph styles’ panel,
and click the small plus button at the bottom

14
00:00:55,239 --> 00:00:58,010
of the panel, to create a new style.

15
00:00:58,010 --> 00:01:01,240
Double-click the new style, and rename it,
should you want to.

16
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,030
I’d leave it, as it is.

17
00:01:04,030 --> 00:01:08,820
Click the ‘GREP style’ option on the left,
and then click the ‘new grep style.’

18
00:01:08,820 --> 00:01:13,660
In the ‘apply style’ dropdown menu, select
the only character style we made, which is

19
00:01:13,660 --> 00:01:18,520
‘superscript’, and then click the ‘to
text’ option, and this is a tricky bit cuz

20
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,230
you need to type in a few characters, so pay
close attention.

21
00:01:23,230 --> 00:01:26,110
Type in without any spaces these symbols:
(?<=[+()a-z-])\d{1,2}(?=[\s{1}|)])

22
00:01:26,110 --> 00:01:33,390
That’s left parenthesis, and then question
mark, then less than sign, then equal sign,

23
00:01:33,390 --> 00:01:41,750
then open bracket, then plus, then open parenthesis,
and then close parenthesis, then the letter

24
00:01:41,750 --> 00:01:50,230
a in lowercase, then a hyphen, then the letter
z in lowercase, then another hyphen, then

25
00:01:50,230 --> 00:01:57,720
closed bracket, then close parenthesis, then
backslash, then the letter d in lowercase,

26
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:07,570
then open brace, then 1, then a comma, and
then 2, then close brace, then open parenthesis,

27
00:02:07,570 --> 00:02:15,890
then a question mark, then equal sign, then
open bracket, then backslash, then the letter

28
00:02:15,890 --> 00:02:26,520
s in lowercase, then open brace, then 1, then
close brace, then pipe, then close parenthesis,

29
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:31,790
then closed bracket, and finally, another close
parenthesis.

30
00:02:31,790 --> 00:02:35,320
You don’t have to remember that, that’s
why I just copied and pasted here, because

31
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,080
even I don’t remember that.

32
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,420
So once you’ve fed the code in, hit okay.

33
00:02:40,420 --> 00:02:45,950
Next, select the text box, and click the paragraph
style you created, and the numbers shall be superscripted.

34
00:02:48,260 --> 00:02:49,260
Alright guys!

35
00:02:49,260 --> 00:02:53,070
That was a short one, so I’m going to see
you in the next one, in just a bit.

36
00:02:53,070 --> 00:02:53,570
Good bye!
